My Trip Along The Wilderness Waterway- The Culmination Of A Thirty Year Quest

Beginning in early winter 2008 I determined to fulfill my dream of canoeing the length of the Wilderness Waterway running between Everglades City and Flamingo Florida. That is a ninety nine mile crossing. By January 2009 I was ready to give it a try. At the beginning of February I finished the journey. It was a great adventure.

4]Buttonwood Canal with Ingraham Highway Bridge in distance (looking south). This canal is the last water before the end of the line. Ahead lies the marina at Flamingo. There is a dam separating this water from Florida Bay, to continue on, if one wishes to boat in the Gulf, a portage is required.
